Aquire on Succession Planning: 'Doing it Right' Means Doing it Now

Aquire, the leader in visual workforce management solutions, today released the fourth volume of its "Doing It Right" best practices data sheet series

Irving, Texas (PRWEB) December 11, 2007 -- Aquire, the leader in visual workforce management solutions, today released the fourth volume of its "Doing It Right" best practices data sheet series, which is designed to help guide companies through an array of workforce modeling and management issues. The latest volume, "Doing it Right: Succession Planning," addresses America's retirement crisis and the corresponding urgency for companies in all industries to prepare for it.

"We'd all probably like to think that the 'retirement crisis' is something that we can worry about later, if at all. Unfortunately, it's an issue that is already affecting many of our country's most important industries, and the rest of us are not far behind," said Ross Melbourne, chief technology officer of Aquire. "Those companies that prepare now with effective succession planning will not only enjoy a significant competitive advantage, but also will benefit from a lifetime of better-trained employees and a more attractive workplace to prospects."
